Hey guys, Iam new to ZFS and have been playing around since few days. Iam trying to improve performance of a iSCSI storage backend by putting the ZIL/log on a SSD.
Below are the steps i followed # format < /dev/null Searching for disks... The device does not support mode page 3 or page 4, or the reported geometry info is invalid. WARNING: Disk geometry is based on capacity data. The current rpm value 0 is invalid, adjusting it to 3600 done c8t3d0: configured with capacity of 465.74GB AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS: 0. c8t0d0 <DEFAULT cyl 60798 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63> /p...@0,0/pci8086,3...@1f,2/d...@0,0 1. c8t1d0 <ATA-ANS9010_NNNN2N2N-_109-3.56GB> /p...@0,0/pci8086,3...@1f,2/d...@1,0 2. c8t2d0 <ATA-WDC WD5002ABYS-0-3B02-465.76GB> /p...@0,0/pci8086,3...@1f,2/d...@2,0 3. c8t3d0 <ATA-WDCWD5001ABYS-0-1D01 cyl 60799 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63> /p...@0,0/pci8086,3...@1f,2/d...@3,0 4. c8t4d0 <ATA-TS8GSSD25S-S-6-7.45GB> /p...@0,0/pci8086,3...@1f,2/d...@4,0 5. c8t5d0 <ATA-WDC WD5002ABYS-0-3B03-465.76GB> /p...@0,0/pci8086,3...@1f,2/d...@5,0 6. c9t9d0 <IFT-S16E-R1130-364Q-4.55TB> /iscsi/d...@0000iqn.2002-10.com.infortrend%3araid.sn7755270.0010001,0 7. c9t13d0 <IFT-S16E-R1130-364Q-4.55TB> /iscsi/d...@0001iqn.2002-10.com.infortrend%3araid.sn7755270.0010001,0 8. c9t15d0 <IFT-S16E-R1130-364Q-4.55TB> /iscsi/d...@0002iqn.2002-10.com.infortrend%3araid.sn7755270.0010001,0 9. c9t16d0 <IFT-S16E-R1130-364Q-4.55TB> /iscsi/d...@0003iqn.2002-10.com.infortrend%3araid.sn7755270.0010001,0 Specify disk (enter its number): # zpool create iftraid0 c9t9d0 log c8t4d0 # zfs create iftraid0/fs # zpool status iftraid0 pool: iftraid0 state: ONLINE scrub: none requested config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM iftraid0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c9t9d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 logs ONLINE 0 0 0 c8t4d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 errors: No known data errors Now when i run dd and create a big file on /iftraid0/fs and watch `iostat -xnz 2` i dont see any stats for c8t4d0 nor does the write performance improves. I have not formatted either c9t9d0 or c8t4d0. What am i missing ?
